Texas "Lily-Whites'" Political Inconsistency $1,000,000 DEFENSE FUND PLANNED HOME EDITION THE MIRROR By C. F. R. Richardson. FIGURES DON'T LIE! Statistics from Texas election returns in presidential election years, which are the most common of the投票权. The election results that the elimination of the black man from the councils and affairs of the republican party in this state as a result of the office of security and virle organization. It is not foundation and is not substantiated by facts and figures. By the 1994–1995 banner republican year in Texas, the republican vote in this state for President Coolidge was 130,023, according to records of the office of security and virle organization. By the 1995–1996 Republican vote for President Harding in 1920, was 114,202. The vote. Conduct the 1920 and 1924 republican presidential vote with the vote received by President McKinley in 1920. The vote received by the President McKinley 1924–2000 President McKinley was 11,000. He received 158,804 votes, and in 1900, he received 103,661. Even with women's suffrage and numerous parties, the vote and團隊的 for the other sections�ning to Texas, the national vote of the party under H. F. MacGregor and P. O. McGregor. The vote was first for the vote of the national ticket when the vote was for the national election. But the vote was not only for the vote of the party. The vote was expressed at the poll for the region's hymns of rejoining songs of self-taudation and unholy alliance with the khuzers to the contrary, not-withheld. If the colored voters of Houston, Harris County and Texas will take the time to go to the poll Saturday, they will be at the start of the campaign against "lily-white" republicanism, but for real republicanism. The "Climate" of the "Lily-white" Boseer and his "Lily-white" Boseer are not the only people who have such a vote of disapproval that even the White House will be forced to take compliance of the sweepingly high-income state. The state's policy is to take compliance of the sweepingly high-income state. The state's policy is to take compliance of the sweepingly high-income state. The state's policy is to take compliance of the sweepingly high-income state. Judge E. P. Scott, Corpus Christi, whose name appears on the official republican primary ballot as one of the two candidates for governor, is the Wurzbach candidate; and every genuine republican is asked to scratch the name of H. H. Haines of Harris County, and leave untouched and unmarked the name of E. P. Scott of Nueces County. Wherever there is a candidate for county chairman, find out if he is a Creager or Wurzbach supporter; if he is for Creager, scratch his name; if for Wurzbach, "touch not the anointed" and do not permit even a particle of dust to mar or blur the name of the Wurzbach candidate for any office at the July primaries. VISITING ALAMO CITY The conductor of this column spent the weekend in San Antonio, carrying over; his two sons to spend part of their vacation with their uncle and sister, who were the only children whose guest we were while there. Accompanying us on the train, both going and returning, was the crack Southern Pacific Lines colored, base-barrel-topped, red-colored, white-colored team of San Antonio in a game Saturday, 10-5; the Sunday set to being rained out. The local players are a jolly set of fine fellows, and they got much enjoyment and pleasure. The team, of course, is one of a bunch of college athletes. Our friends, H. M. Tarver and Thomas Holley, Jr., kept their cars at our disposal, and did all in their best way to get the game out and enjoyable. Attorney A. G. Perkins, Galveston, happened to join us here, and the judge and writer had a very delightful nocturnal chat on route to and returning from the United States. San Antonio is the most beautiful city in Texas, to our way of thinking, and no Texan or American can visit this city, behold the Alamo—we have no idea where it is going. The young proud of the history made by the early settlers of this state, then a republic, in throwing off the Mexican yoke. One thing that particularly impressed the writer was the excellently paved and graved streets in the sections of the city occupied chiefly by colored residents. The city officials of Houston and other Texas cities will be invited to discuss the情况. We are not so-called employed with much gratifying results in graveling so many of the streets in the Alamo City. This substance, in its natural state, becomes hardened with time and深度. The substance for hard-surfaced streets. While there we witnessed a surprise social event tendered Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Holley, Sr., by their children; the occasion being the 44th wedding of San Antonio. We also inspected the vocational training department of the colored high there, and noted the fine piece of work being done in this respect by President John V. F. We also saw Miss Kearna K. Fairchild, Houston product exec. at the company. C.A., who has rendered and is still rendering a careful services to her people and her customers. Politics seems to permeate the San Antonio air, and from indications it THE HOUSTON INFORMER Apropos of the action of the Harris County republican executive committee, in the adoption of a resolution introduced at their meeting on June 21, 1926, by T. P. Lee of Houston, barring or attempting to exclude from party primaries and affairs all persons who did not support and vote for "Doctab" George C. Butte and the republican presidential elections in 1924. The Informer wishes to ask a few questions and, incidentally, to keep the record straight. Since T. P. Lee, the "financial angel" of the so-called republican party in this community, and one of the "big boys," from a monetary viewpoint, in the state, was so kind to introduce his "exclusion resolution," let him answer an interrogation or two. Mr. Lee, if you were such a party man in 1924, why did you, in the public press, even after "Rotten Boss" Cresger and his "fily-white" candidate had nominated you as his gubernatorial candidate, congratulate Mrs. Miriam A. Ferguson upon her success in the first democratic primary, and tender her your support in the general election. After you wired your untimely and unwise message to the democracies, did you call for Cresger and his cabinet call a hurried bid and virtually compel you to decline the republican gubernatorial nomination? Did you mean what you said in that memorable message to Mrs. Ferguson at that time, and did you live up to your promise to support her at the November election in 1924, or did you permit her to bluff you and cease you into supporting and voting for Butte? It isn't also a fact that you, deep down in your heart, felt that you were the republican Elisha in Texas, and that the mantle of the late F. H. MacGregor, the partisan EJihad, should have fallen upon your shoulders rather than upon Cresger's. Did you expect to be powered by expost facto and retroactive rules, regulations and resolutions, how did you vote in the senatorial election of 1922? Did you support Senator Earle B. Mayfield, the klan-democratic candidate, or George E. B. Peddy, the fusion candidate of the republican, and anti-clan democrats? Did you expect to be pressured with the candidacy of the democratic gubernatorial nominee, Mrs. Ferguson, in 1924, did you put your ballot where your mouth was, or did "Rotten LOCAL REPUBLICANS LAY PLANS FOR COUNTY FIGHT AT PRIMARIES, JULY 24 G. P. Richardson served as临时 chairman and explained the plan for the election to appear that Congressman Wurzbach, republican congressional candidate, will be victorious over Knetch in the election. Richardson and colored, seems to be backing the plan. South's Greatest Weekly Newspaper HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JULY 3, 1926 of money was raised and subscribed for the expenses incident to waging a legal fight and county campaign against the governor candidate for county commissioner, prefect No. 3, was present and addressed the gathering. He was given a letter of condolence and brought forth much applause. He stated that he had a "Lincoln republic" The next meeting will be held Monday night, July 5, 8:30 clock at the University of Chicago, the promoters of this movement are extremely anxious that the women of our race come out in large numbers to vote. This is largely a racial fight, and if we fail in this cause at political and partisan orphans and outcasts, this also hoped that the colored ministers will stave, from their political power, that they will present of them will be present Monday night," says Campaign Manager Carter. "Everybody has a political freedom, come out to the meeting next Monday night," urges FINANCIAL HELP NEEDED. All persons who are in sympathy with the mandates proceeding now being instituted to get the name of C. F. Richardson on the Republican ballot, to chairman, to be voted upon Saturday, July 24, 1926, are urged to make their checks payable to G. H. Webster, treasurer. Mr. Webster's address is 220 West Dallas, phone 750-7800, tracer and far-reaching cause. ELKS ELECTED OFFICERS FOR NEXT SIX MONTHS Gibraltar Lodge No. 500, L. B. P. L.

Lewis, Ennille Fon Boss" wield his customary big stick or magic wand and thus cause you to change your mind? Was your 1924 vote for governor, free or trammelled; willing or forced? When the late President Warren Gamaliel Harding swept the country in 1920, did you support the republican ticket for president down to constable; or, for business reasons, did you support the national republican ticket and the state democratic ticket, in whole or in part? Why all this political bumbrec and inconsistency? If your party is so "regular" and stands for such "party regularity," come and go with us to the 14th congressional district of Texas, where you, Creager and the other partisan tyrants are trying to defeat Congressman Harry M. Wurzbach in his candidacy and rejection and action. Since the congressman is a "regular" republican and has thrice been nominated and elected by the voters of said district to the lower house of congress, why are you contributing so freely of your wealth to defeat this true and tried republican? Isn't it a fact that your candidate, Fred E. Knetsch, ran on the democratic ticket in Kimble County in 1922 for county attorney, and was elected to office on said ticket? Is it a fact that your candidate, the congressional candidate of yours and "Rotten Boss" Creager ran for county of Kimble County in 1924 on the democratic ticket, and, as such candidate, supported and voted for the democratic ticket from stem to stern? If this is not true, please trot out the records of the county clerk in Kimble County! Going a bit further—in order to keep the record straight and demonstrate how consistent you and your partisan carpet-haggers are in politics, you should support in Texas—why did Creager-Nole-Lee & Co. urge, endorse and select a lifelong democrat, Knetsch, to support a lifelong and old line republican congressman in the 1926 primaries? Why did you, sir, become a party to such a movement or agreement that would accord this high honor to a man who has never supported nor voted for a republican candidate, as it is common among the party's members, both your money and influence in a vain and futile effort to bring about the defeat of a genuine, orthodox republican congressman? DOGAN, MASON PUSH CAMPAIGN HERE FOR WILEY DOGAN, MASON PUSH CAMPAIGN HERE FOR WILEY Dr. M. W. Dogan and Prof. H. J. Mason, president and executive secretary, respectively, of Wiley College, will present this week in the interest of this famed East Texas school of learning. The object of the visit is to visit the institution for appropriate appropriations from the board of education and other Northern agencies, and to select students from the next September. Accompaniment of this dual objective a citywide mass meeting was held at Terni M. E. School, a night, being attended by leading Methodist ministers and laymen of the local address was delivered by Dr. Dogan, who has been directing action throughout the third of a century, and who is ranked one of the most eminent education in the State. Prof. Mason, an alumnus of Wiley College, is well fitted for the secretary to the vipreity of the View State College, is well fitted for the Dr. Dogan, a deal of routine, detail and even administrative work. These demands on donate money to the institution will be meeting to侍 Wiley next fall as students can get in touch with Prof. COMING! NEXT ISSUE JULY 10, 1926 "THE VOICE OF JACOB BUT THE HAND OF ESAU" A red-hot editorial on the republican political situation in Houston and Texas. FOLKS, DON'T MISS IT! Americans Launch Fight For Negro's Full Rights BANKS ACCEPTS PRINCIPALSHIP STATE COLLEGE Special to The Informer: Bryan, Texas, June 30, 1926—Dr. T. O. Walton, president Texas Agricultural and Mechanical College and ex-officio head of Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College for Negroes, held a conference here recently with Dr. W. R. Banks, for 10 years president Texas College, Tyler, Texas, with the result that the East Texas race educator has decided to accept the principalship of Prairie View in eptember, 1926. When the Prairie View board elected Dr. Banks as the new head of P. V., succeeding Dr. J. G. Osborne, now a practising physician at Houston, it was doubtful whether the North American College could accept the principalship under existing conditions. On top of this, his salary was increased $1,000 per annum at Tyler, and even the white citizens of the East Texas city urged the Negro educator to remain at Texas College, where he has done phenomenal work in the last decade. While Dr. Walton has made no public statement concerning their conference, since Dr. Banks was insistent upon certain changes being made in the conduct and operation of P. V., and since he has accepted the principalship of the state college, he has been a member of the American College, believed that Dr. Walton and the board agreed to some of the terms laid down by Dr. Banks. Dr. Bank's appointment as next principal of Prairie View marks the third principal since the ignominous dismissal of Dr. E. L. Blackshear by the Ferguson board members in 1916, and the elevation of this East Texas educator to this position is a signal victory for the members of the colored race who have contended that a second principalship of the state school has been遥遥遥遥. Couldn't your "gang" find another republican in the entire 14th congressional district who was willing to pick up the banner of Creagerism and "illly-white-ism," and march forth to the political battlefield to be slaughtered and annihilated by the Wurzbach forces? Since you are such a stance advocates and believer in "party regularity," and in barring from participation in party affairs and activities all persons who did not support the 1924 klan candidate, little "Georgei" Buttle of Austin (who was never known in republican ranks and councils until selected an the republican-klan candidate to supplant you, when Creager-Nolte &o, bodily kicked you off the republican state ticket after your death, when you were arrested for a crime (waste), why didn't you object strengely and voicelessly to this dictate, and refuse to spend your money in a crazy and foolish effort to save Creager's political scab? Mr. Lee, you have a great surname—one to conjure with in the people who reside in glass houses, if they have the least bit of horse sense, will be very careful how they hurl stones at others' horse sense; or he attentively政论 or otherwise, should come with clean hands and an unspotted garment; for the law of retribution is immutable and inxorable, and reaping is as sure to follow sowing as night to follow day, or vice versa. All right, Brer Tom Lee, you have injected yourself into politics and, since you are not playing the game "according to Hoyle," don't get excited, holler nor hot in the collar when we bombard your partisan entrenchments; for often we fire a "Big Bertha" of that only needs to know your address to do its awful and "dirty." Again, Tom, never start a song when you don't know the words in their entirety, or else as a singer or song leader you will be a burst and force! We trust that these few lines will find you, "Rolling Bouncer" Music and all your bunch of tyrants well and in good "spirilu" (save); if not, we shall drop you another epistle are long-Seal! Chicago, Ill. A million dollar fund to fight segregation, "jim-crowism" and disfranchisement, "the last vistige of slavery," launched yesterday afternoon in the Audiorium Theatre at a mass meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, now holding its 17th annual conference here. The fund was launched during an address by the secretary of the Association, James Weldon Johnson of New York, ex-U.S. consultant to Nicaragua and Venezuela, writer, and editor of compilations of Negro poetry and spirituals. "What American Negroes need and come to the place of treatment, now we propose to begin raising demand equality of treatment. Ignorative people are the only people who are the most unskilled, and even white men have rights; poverty-stricken white men have rights; and even white criminals have certain rights; and these rights belong to the rights of the rights being of slavery." "Such a fund will be a demonstration of the mass power which the Negro intends to use and will serve notice upon the country of the Negro's maintainability and maintenance of the national right which should be his in common with other Americans. "It is possible and feasible for American people to raise the capital in America and to use the money and can give. The demonstrations of the capital will be the most unskilled of legal defense for more than $700,000." "The American Negro says no al- mood that it has to be burned by a mob of the stake." STANDARD MANAGER IN $100,000 CLASS; LEADS FIELD IN 1926 H. P. Carter, agency manager Standard Life Insurance Company, wishes to thank his many friends of South Texas, who made it possible for him to be the first agent of his company to qualify in the 100,000 class for first five months of work. He makes San Antonio last week, where he paid $3000 in death claims; also paying $1000 in legal fees to Newman on the city.

CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT New Orleans, La.-Betterly attacking Richard Dowling, assistant district attorney and former judge of criminal district court, for alleged disregard of duty and for the part he is accused of playing in the alleged "fixing" plot. Ben Dainly and Walter Hamlin were charged with the same offenses against L. Edward Brandt, deputy sheriff of parish prison, and Edward Palmer, Allegro Negro. The jury reported in Judge A. D. Henrique's section of the criminal district court after two hours of deliberation, answering the plea of Eugene Stanley, assistant district attorney, prosecuting the case, that Brandt should be tried for his role in his duty for not reporting the alleged "fixing" plot. Judge Humeira rejoined, "That is not notes and the leases but did not con- tinue to voluntarily join the case before Stanley answer- ing," and the criminal district court DORSEY'S SCHOOL FOR NIGHT PUPILS Students Prepared for Bipk Grade Work and Make Up Any Back Work. Able Faculty, Write for Terms. JOS. DEJOIE'S MODERN DRUG STORES Daly declared: "It is discouraging to hear men prate about duty when duty has been so neglected. I am surprised at the state! There is more matter to be done in Borie than there is against Brand and Palmer." Daly declared that the Borie and Palmer were in the attorney. It was insulted by Brand that Dowling and F. W. Borie, who have been named in the alleged "fix-up" of the case, were responsible for carrying out the law. Borie's name had been among those who were indicted that it had been a state witness, with the exception of assistant district attorney Bernard Mackey, who were accomplices. In opening the case for the state, Engineer Stainley said: "It matters not whether you are your duty to convict those accused, irrespective of any part of the law." He is your duty to convict those declared in his closing remarks, that never in the history of criminal practice have the rules of evidence been SOCIAL WORKER DISMISSED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE SOCIAL WORKER DISMISSED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE Co-Operative Workers of Negro Juvenile Delinquents held a special meeting at Pythian Temple, Friday, June 16, 2014, to discuss the work of the chair, Mrs. F.

Stanley exerted pressure before the grand jury several weeks ago and that body had seen fit to indict only Baldar and Palmer, who is the and is father of Bentice Palmer, 13, Algerian, the "fixing" trial Alvin Olbreu, Algerian, who is charged with statutory offense against Baldar, who is years old, Edward Baldar, who is acquitted in the "fixing" case.

Now, when his tactics have been disclosed to the nation and he stands almost discredited as a party leader, "Rotten Boss" Herman M. Wurzbach of the 14th congressional district, has become both desperate, inconsistent and incongruous in his maddened and frenzed attempt to defeat and dislodge Congressman Harry M. Wurzbach of the 14th congressional district. He has become both desperate and inconsistent and incongruous and his political lords and tyrants shall continue their rule-or ruin policy in the republican party of the state, or whether the voters are willing to rally to the standards of Wurzbach and his political lords and tyrants, and which hold the gummine republicans in a position of humiliating than human bondage for the last six or eight years. Republican voters throughout Texas, who do not reside in the 14th congressional district, are urged to go to the polls Saturday, March 16, 2015, to vote for Wurzbach faction, headed by Judge E. P. S. Scott of Corpus Christi. The Informer urged the colored republicans to manifest some interest in this party fight, line up with Wurzbach and let's rid Texas of the "illy-white" blight that has wrought political havoc on the republican ranks in Texas and the South for the last several years.

ELDER-PHELPS WE BEAUTIFUL The tongue is about the smallest member of the body, but it can be a source of much good or evil, depending largely upon how that is made. The tongue employs it, along with his or her lips. Little lying lips have done more to work homes, astronauts, characters and bring disgrace upon men and women than all other forces and factors. He have never been able to see how any woman or man can deliverately be known.

If these these malicious liars a liability to society, but their deadly and damnable work is carried on and added to an extremely large colony of gossip and rumor-mongers — persons who will repeat, as well as add to, the least bit of gossip that she or he may hear, without ever taking the pains to investigate and ascertain the truth before giving both credence and circletime to us. If there is any one place in the South, or America, or the world where an anti-gossip ordinance is needed, it is in "Heavenly Houston." (Seems strange that so many residents in a "heavenly" city would be so hellish, but the truth is the light!) To some of the other things, he may not think of a good-paying job, if they must forego work in order to originate and circulate gossip, rumors and lies. During the last few weeks this city has been worked overtime with gossip, scandal, rumor and lies, and it would be surprising and very important for any one to divulge the original source of most of this wild-eyed gossip and preemoditated prevarication, or downright lies. Then, too, most of these gossipers and scandal-mongers either bear watching, or are so crooked that they can not lie in a bed and a bed is now to be reached the stage in life that approaches second childhood. Often it happens that the gossiper is envious of some neighbor's success or progress or material possession, and thus an insidious campaign is immediately undertaken to literally destroy the favored humane person.

Several voters have asked The Informer to explain the present political situation in Texas among the republicans, particularly as it relates to the fight now being waged by the Creager and Wurzbach. The election is in the case of the 14th of the 19thிரंभ of the Creager party. Under the Creager administration the so-called republican party in this state has dwindled into a mere patronage bureau, and, while Creager plays to the Washington grandstand and tries to make the national party leaders believe that he and his cohorts are not the only people who could up a strong republican party in Texas, deep down in his heart he is not anxious for any suit attaution to obtain in this state. It is Creager's idea that he is or should be the biggest man in the republican party in Texas; that he is lord, tyrant and monarch of the country and still comes to the authority and power to issue a dick, and all things that are the legalists. The example of the exclude from party affairs and council, those who incur his royal displeasure and majestic ill-will; that even a republican congressman from his (Creager)'s state, who has the nerve and "guts" up the people of theிரंभ, is a firm and a game, must be ousted from the party and defeated in his grandstand. The administration to Congress from the 14th congressional district of Texas. Congressman Wurzbach, the only Southern solon in the lower or upper house of congress to vote for the Dyer anti-lynching bill, has been a strong泼天之风, and the House of Lords has also been the only bosses should not arrogate unto themselves the authority to convert the republican party in Texas into a vest-pocket organization, maintained primarily and principally for federal patronage purposes; that the republican party belongs to all the people and a voice and hand in its affairs. Congressman Wurzbach does not believe in any type of republicanism that needs an adjective to describe it, such as "illy-impossible," "impossible," and "impossible." He began his party of the PEOPLE OF THE PEOPLE OF THE PEOPLE—the same party principles enunciated by the immortal and illustrious Abraham Lincoln. Because Congressman Wurzbach holds divergent views to those of the�-haggers and the clergery of Brownsville along various partisan lines, the former believers of the Republican Party, while the latter is a rabid advocate of "white supremacy" and a "illy-white" republican organization in this state, the present party wrangle has been precipitated in Texas; with the other of the general interest in fighting upon the shoulders of the party-boss, and from the state of "Rottles" to "Rottles" and "Rottles" of the party-bosses. Creager, Eugene Nolte, T. P. Lee and other henchmen have raised a huge sum of money and are now flooding the 14th congressional district with filthy lucre in an effort to nominate a new clergy of the party-bosses. Over the years, the clergy of the congressional seat in the political party has been despite Creager's public boasts and declarations that the "republican party henceforth and forever in Texas will be a white man's party," and notwithstanding his exclusion and ejection of the "many of the people," from party affairs, and his veiled attempt to deny the republicanism of the party. The former was the onlyరి, the onlyరి, the onlyరి, the onlyరి, the onlyరి, the onlyrion, the onlyrion. Lee Knetach "illy-white" forces have opened up a "COLORED HEADQUARTERS" in the east end of San Antonio, and several blatant vehicles have been employed by Creager to "sell" their race and money. The same person of porridge is the Black voters of Texas are not good enough to participate in the party affairs and councils of the republican party under the Creager-Nolte-Lee regime, but they are good enough to be right. But though by these same political hijackers and carpet-beggers in the order of the state a republican congressman with a democratic political opportunity Well, Creeger is a partisan or political opportunist, and this running true to form of this hand-picked democratic congress believes in trimming every sail with the passing breeze, and in playing both ends against the middle. In 1922, when the senatorial战友 was waged against the klan, Creeger and his consorta supported a stunner democratic, George E. Buchanan, and B. Mayfield, with the result that Peddy finished a poor second. Creeger cared little for the results—he was playing to the partisan galleries at Washington. The governor Plutocratic "Lee of Houston had been nominated for governor of Texas on the republican ticket, and then was compelled to quit the ticket after publicly congratulating Mrs. Ferguson upon her temporary victory against the democrats. The governor was supported by the general election, Creeger grabbed a democratic and klan sympathizer, if not a klansman, at Texas University, Austin, and placed him in Lee's place on the republican ticket and then was appointed head of a republican holding a professorship at Texas University. Creeger knew that the klansmen of Texas and their adherents were not going to support Mrs. Ferguson, a rabid anti-klan candidate, and thus he. O. P. car waited until after the run-off was completed, and Mrs. Ferguson was quenched by Mrs. Ferguson in the second primary of 1924, the republican tyrant brought forth little "George Clan" Butte as the republican-klan candidate for governor. Mrs. Ferguson was cast for him in the November election. Dr. Butte received 298,046 votes; yet the Coolidge presidential electors received less than the least member of the body, but it evil, depending largely upon how it, along with his or her lipa. he is to rewreck homes, destroy charmmen and women than all other see how any woman or man can up some of the false and abandul fit over the community like a gossip and rumor-mongers—perhaps of the lie or misunderstanding of a truth in what she or he puts iliars a liability to society, but it kills an enemy added to by gossip and rumor-mongers—perhaps as add to, the least bit of gossip ever taking the pains to inventive giving both credence and South, or America, or the world, is needed, it is in "Heavenly so many residents in a "heaven-the truth is the light") the truth is the light) or even loses foreign work in order to originate lies. city has been worked overtime lies, and it would be surprising the original source of most of prevarication, or downers and slap-mongers either that they can not lie in a bed reached the life in that stage that apperier is envious of some neighbor's possession, and thus an insidious token to literally destroy the favor-enter the kingdom of heaven, have many representatives in that DODING VERY L HOME CEREMONY embellishment of molded cailies lined thereon called forth esthetic admiration. From the great throng of invited guests, quite as many white people were there, many of whom are grand and groun's families being known to some of Houston's oldest and most wealthy families, a generous presence of rare and exotic flowers made each room of the apacheous house a place of beauty and loveliness. Mia Mattie J. Simmons caught the bride's bouquet, a shower of rice and well-wishen flowers to their own home in Third Ward, at 2314 St. Charles Street, where they met many friends.

CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our sincere appreciation to our many friends and neighbors for the care and support we have given to the occasion of the death of our brother Thomas Thomas who died recently. OPINIONS INFORMOGRAMS Did you ever stop to think what it was that started all this discussion about the good rounds bonds, and what made it necessary for so many citizens of the state to request the government to call, where their conditions are all, the agriculture? Well, all the muddle came about in this way: certain citizens of one county in this state decided that it was unconstitutional for them to be taxed without representation, so they proceeded forthwith to to the state where their tentations were upheld. Thus we get another lesson from the other race, that it pays far better to air your contentions in the courts than to air them on the street corners! For years and years we have been making the ministers the butt of our jokes, when one or more of the gentlemen of the cloth have asked for time to consult the Holy Spirit before accepting calls to places which paid a larger salary than the one held, and it has almost a standard time to visit the said, and evered getting the sanction of the Holy Spirit to go where the pastures were the greenest; but the declination of the Rt. Reverend J. A. Gregg, bishop of the A. M. E. Church, has demonstrated the greatest interest are not living men in the ministry, who put the claims of their parishioners above dollars and cents. Bishop Gregg in refusing the post of president of Howard University, which carried with it a raise in salary of $1000 in the session, is jotted with using these words: "When I left Africa, those dear postures return. We have lost four hobiles by death, and it was thought I might promise them that I would not do this, and that I would be back to them. I feel that I should keep my these words express a noble sentiment, and a spirit of sacrifice which the bishop's calling and profession, but which have long ceased to charm me, must be reminded of this day and time. The news报纸 of newspapers seem to be far apart as the East coast is gaining the recent visit to that city of Hon. Louis Borno, president of the two whole devotees as much as two whole members of the black president, and in quotation of the Whip under the caption, "A Bansquet for Borno, gives the same 'disiring' concluding the rather scathing article with "We understand that the Chicago plan to honor this contemple creature, Borno, with an honorary award, fitting and the writer of this editorial takes great pleasure in announcing that we will not be among those present." Some of our editors, in commenting on the splendid reception given the president of the Republic of Haiti, by President Coolidge, and the rather cool manner in which President King of Liberia was received, leave no room for the return of any part that they believe the former's warm reception was superinduced by the Haitian's willingness to have his country exploited by American money-sharks, and owing to President King's determined opposition to America's program of exploitation, his stay in America was not as warm as Byrd's was at the North Pole. Houston has in the person of Charles Peacock, perhaps the oldest colored railroad employee in the South, if not in America. He has been in the employ of the Southern Pacific and fifty years, and is now on the pension list. His service in this capacity extends over a period of fifty-eight years, as he spent about eight years railroading in the old states before coming to Texas. Mr. Peacock leaves the city this week for an extended trip which will take him from the Atlantic Coast to the Pacific slope. "Money talks," is an old saying, but no one up to now has charged the filthy lucre with being a soloist; but take it from one who knows, the old girl is a Black Patti, and her favorably number is Good By, Forever. She looks readers an encore number, however much entreated! MT. CORINTH BAPTIST REV. A. HUBBARD, Pastor. Superintendent J. H. Rhodes made his report from the National Baptist Sunday School Congress, which was held at Columbia, S. C., to the Sunday school last Sunday, before a large number of pupils and teachers. The report was well received and as a result of the visit to the congress our superintendent is looking forward to a greater Sunday school. Our teacher's training class meets every Monday night. At 11 o'clock Sunday Rev. Plummer preached an inspiring sermon, which set our hearts aglow. B. Y. P. U. held a very interesting session at 6 o'clock; President J. W. Nicholson gave a wonderful blackboard demonstration to the edification of all present. At night Rev. L. H. Harris, graduate of Conroe College, preached a very excellent sermon.
